Meanwhile, the nation of Freedonia has officially stated that it will welcome Mr. Trump with open arms in case the American political system refuses to see the great man’s genius. Critics of President Firefly charge that the conman has already bilked his previous financial sponsor out of billions, and now has to move on to another sucker.

“What can I say? Bill Gates won’t return my phone calls, and I heard that Trump can sing our national anthem quite well. ‘The last man nearly ruined this place, he didn’t know what to do with it. If you think this country’s bad off now, just wait ’til I get through with it,’ that’s my favorite line,” explained President Firefly.

The Republican establishment isn’t unhappy with the possibility of Vice-President Mike Pence becoming the Commander-in-Chief. “If Mike Pence becomes President, then we won’t have to keep sending Vladimir Putin all those edible arrangements,” stated one anonymous source.

*Yes, this is a Poe. After all, the US military and/or any of the intelligent services would never undermine or assassinate the President even if he did prove to be an existential threat to the country. Right?
